52 Weeks – Week 33

·

I’m collecting 52 songs in 52 weeks. Every Friday afternoon, I will add a song to my playlist. The aim is to capture my energy and feelings for that particular Friday with the chosen song.

Week 33/52: Simply Red – Money’s Too Tight (To Mention) [Fire Island Vox Remix]

After 52 weeks, I will have recorded all the seasons, holidays, and high and low weeks of the year (from October 2024 to September 2025) in one self-curated playlist on Apple Music. Don’t use Apple Music? Subscribe to weekly updates via RSS.

I started this Thursday morning with two different runs on the track: a 5-kilometer tempo run at a pace of 5:13 per kilometer and a 1-kilometer cool-down run at a pace of 6:21 per kilometer.

Both runs went quite well, and I’m happy that I went out again before starting my workday. Today will be a long and intense day filled with meetings and presentations I need to prepare for.

Run Log 20250505

I promised myself I would pick up my training schedule again this week, so I did today with two separate runs on the track. I did one 15-minute warm-up run and another 28-minute progressive tempo run for 43 minutes of exercise in total.

After stretching on the back of the first run, I started my tempo run, which combined a 5-minute warm-up with a 12-minute ‘out’ and an 11-minute ‘back.’ In my ‘out’ laps, I covered a total distance of 1,96 kilometers; in the ‘back’ run, I covered a distance of 2,28 kilometers.

Cold Blood by Robert Bryndza

Cold Blood by Robert Bryndza is a crime thriller in the Erika Foster series. This is the fifth book in the series. I’m suffering from completion syndrome reading this series, as I don’t enjoy the books as much as I do from other crime series, yet I still want to read them all.
